   Rourke is actually …
   Rourke is actually very consistent. I just saw an interview he did in 2004 for the Angel Heart dvd – in it he was saying how he was that non-actors were getting 20 million for a picture and Eric Roberts couldn’t get work. Rourke doesn’t mask his feelings – back then he seemed very sad, even depressed. When asked how it was to work with a certain director, Mickey said “he was a prick”. He had Loki sitting on his lap through the whole thing. He really did love that pooch.

    “..I don´t know …
    “..I don´t know what you do, honey, but these two are really good.”

    That. There.

    Not too many people in Hollywood circles who have the balls to NOT succumb to political correctness.

    Say what´s on your mind. Let the chips fall where they may. it.

Their agenda: repeatedly cull/victimize people via vaccines/other poisons, carbon taxes, Codex Alimentarius, internet 2, WW3 then stage an alien invasion to get a fascist world government/religion with us chipped.

    I wholly agree. His more tragic characters are so obviously from the heart as I see him as a lesser-than-tragic figure. He’s a brilliant actor and he is THE BOSS.
